Bug ID: 61858 Summary: Getting double value from the method "cell" of interface "SheetContentsHandler" of "XSSFSheetXMLHandler" class Product: POI Version: unspecified Hardware: PC OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: XSSF Assignee: dev@poi.apache.org Reporter: phanishwa...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 35586 --> https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=35586&action=edit Changes that give the double value of the cell to output Hi. There are two things I think will be helpful with this patch: 1) When in Excel the cell date format and the system date format are same, the underlying cell format is not considered when reading and the value.Value is generated based on the local system date format where we are reading the Excel file.In such a case if I get the cell value in the string format, there is nothing much I can do to get the value in the format which I required as output.This can be possible If I have the double value of that cell. 2) When the cell is Number say with format(5,000).If I get the value as String, I will get it as 5,000. If I want to convert it into a Double by parsing the value 5,000 It will throw an error. If I have a double value in this case things can be done easily. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@poi.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@poi.apache.org
